About the caregiver

Hello! My name is Ben, and I've been a dog owner and lover my entire life! While I'm new to Wag!, I've been walking dogs professionally for the past 25 years, and love the shared adventure and fitness activity of a good walk! Having both a high energy Jack Russel Terrier and a large breed Great Dane myself, along with decades of professional experience walking almost every size and type of dog there is, I've learned how to handle just about every possible scenario that might occur when on a walk. I've also extensively studied canine psychology and behavior, and find it extremely useful when out and about on a walk, both in avoiding situations and reinforcing good leash/walk habits. I know that a dog's walk is, other than when their people come home, the best part of their day, and I strive to make it a fulfilling and enjoyable one! On a dog's walk, it's not only important to make sure a dog gets his or her exercise and potty needs met, but it's also important to make sure the dog gets to enjoy himself! I try to make sure that we have plenty of sniff-stops, pleasant walker/dog interactions, and interesting things to see! I can maintain any pace necessary, and have developed a good "feel" for each dog's necessary walking speed at heel. I like to encourage and praise proper walking techniques, to make sure your fur babies maintain their good leash habits!
